These Growing Texas Cities Will Develop Your Business

Multiple media outlets — think MarketWatch, CNN and Forbes — have reported that the state of Texas is booming, and it’s not just coming from energy and oil. A number of Texas cities are good places to develop your business.

In 2015, nearly half a million people moved to Texas, according to Census Bureau data. Houston, Dallas, Austin and San Antonio “together added more people last year than any state in the country except for Texas as a whole.” And not only are people moving from other states to Texas, but people are moving across the state from city to city.

I’m a proud Texan and I’m enthused that the state is an auspicious place for tech, education and health care jobs. With a range of housing options, good jobs and relatively mild weather, Texas is a place anyone who is looking to start or expand their business should consider. Here are some statistics on a handful of Texas cities that are good places to develop your business. All data is gathered from the U.S. Census Bureau.
